County roundup: The Rootstown Lions Club Chili Cook-off, plus news from Paris and Deerfield

Leadership Portage County will host a “Night at the Races” fundraiser at 5 p.m. Feb. 10 at the American Legion Post 496 at 1945 Mogadore Road in Kent. Past televised horse races will be shown, and dinner will be served. Tickets are still available, and there are still horses available to sponsor. The admission fee is $50 per person. For $100, you can sponsor a racing patron, which would be two dinner admissions, and you get to name a horse. If it is just a horse naming, that costs $20. If you want to be a finish-line sponsor, that is two admissions, one race sponsorship and one horse naming for $150. The winner will receive a cash payment.
